I’m pumped.

Take a moment right now and re-realize some things.

#1. Where you are, right now, God knew that exact location before you were born.
#2. What you are doing, right now, God knew what you’d be doing before you were born.
#3. Who you are, right now, God knew who you’d be before you were born.

Those three – where, what, and who have been on my mind this evening. I will sleep peacefully tonight knowing that I have once-again given my Heavenly Father complete control over those three areas.

What part of one (or more) of those areas are you holding back on today?

Give it up. It’s not worth holding onto yourself.

Found a great “guess this carol by the obscure clue” game on a Youth Pastor’s resource site. It was only a list of the clues and then the answers. I doctored it up a bit and am offering the quiz (2-up) and answers here for you to download if you want them!

Kudos to Jason Schmock for originating this list of 25-carol-clues!

I’m showing this tomorrow night as a part of my “Mythbusting Christmas” message with our students:


Saw this on my buddy Jason Knepp’s blog:



#1. I can’t believe someone techno-ized “Amazing Grace” (was that Cher?)
#2. If that light-display is real – wow.
#3. I have nothing else to say.
